S0203 - Sustainable Approaches to Product Design, Manufacturing, Testing and Supply Chain Resilience

Thu, Mar 20, 2025 · 10:30–11:40 AM CET Montreal Room, Congress Center Basel

About this session

The purpose is to showcase a range of topics which explore how regulatory frameworks are essential to implement innovation, and secure sustainable supply over the lifecycle of the product. Examples include industry efforts to deliver sustainable manufacturing and supply chains, new analytical technologies and their regulatory challenges, shortage prevention and importation testing.

The presenters and panel discussion will reflect on how flexibility and diligence in regulatory frameworks (such as the Quality requirements in European pharmaceutical legislation, the European variations frameworks) and global reliance for post approval change can all be enablers.
